Ms. Kuechenmeister is new to Lewis Elementary this year and is teaching Kindergarten. Her husband is an active duty soldier and this summer’s move to Fort Irwin marked their ninth move (with two sons and two dogs in tow).  Ms. K previously taught First Grade and/or Kindergarten at Fort Campbell, Kentucky and Fort Stewart, Georgia. She said: “I feel extremely lucky to have been able to do what I love (teach!) inside my very own Army community. This is my fifth year of teaching and I am so excited to have a new Kindergarten crew at Lewis Elementary!”
